I would think not. Just because you alert the Department of Transportation
that a stop sign is missing are you liable because you told everyone about
it??? You are not liable for pointing out someone else mistakes. I could
tell someone that a bank is open and there are no security guards. Am I
liable if they go and rob it. I think not. What people do is their
decision.
